Hi cwebber2
#
fr33domlover
Hackathon happening? :)

fr33domlover: I think there's a different chat room, I saw someone mention me in something
#
cwebber2
hi fr33domlover yes
#
cwebber2
it's in here but we haven't been vocal yet because we did a lot of setting up and exchanging ideas today
#
cwebber2
but let me talk about some of what we're planning to do!
#
cwebber2
sl007 and I are both going to try writing activitypub implementations that use something like https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/rwot7-toronto/blob/master/topics-and-advance-readings/magenc.md but with ipfs as the p2p distribution mechanism
#
cwebber2
so think activitypub, but with encrypted content served over ipfs instead of over http, so more resilient in that way
#
cwebber2
if a node goes down, the content survives

cwebber2: have you thought about DAT?

I know Darius Kazemi is working at DAT right now so there's definitely some crossover that might be nice
